The variety of large-fruited tomatoes "Golden domes" refers to the widely known tomato series "Siberian garden". The second name of this series sounds like "Siberiada". Varietal tomatoes from this series are bred by purposeful and consistent selection by Siberian breeders. This series includes varieties that are resistant to temperature extremes and are well adapted to the climatic conditions of Siberia.
Like the rest of the tomatoes in this series, the Golden Dome tomatoes are distinguished by high yields, resistance to weather extremes and to the main diseases of the nightshade.
Appearance and description of the variety
These tomatoes are deterministic varieties that can be grown with equal success in greenhouse and open ground conditions.
The determinant tomato varieties are also: “Katyusha”, “Liana”, “SoleroSo F1”, “Aphrodite f1”, “Alsou”, “Raspberry Giant”, “Novice”, “Pink Honey”, “Shuttle”.
Description of the variety "Golden domes":
- tomatoes with yellow color of the fruit and yellow-orange flesh (see the photo below);
- large, fleshy, weight ranges from 400 to 800 g;
- tomato form - mild heart-shaped, flat-rounded;
- the variety is mid-season, the first fruits can be picked 3–3.5 months after the first shoots;
- bush height from 90 cm to 150 cm (when grown in a greenhouse, the height of the stems will be greater than in open ground);
- tomato bush is not a standard;
- bush's foliage is medium, leaves are drooping, weakly sprawling;
- possesses a complex brush in which from 5 to 14 fruits fit;
- variety mainly salad destination.
Did you know? Determinant Tomatoes - These are varieties with a genetically limited growth point. Such a shrub finishes its growth by throwing out the last fruit cluster on the top of the plant. Indeterminate tomatoes are varieties in which genes do not contain growth restriction at any stage of plant growth. In conditions of year-round summer, these varieties of tomatoes can grow, bloom and bear fruit for twelve months.
Fruit Characteristic
Tomatoes "Golden domes" have excellent yield. In one brush of this variety can start 5 to 14 tomatoes. This form of brush is called a complex brush. The more tomatoes will be on one brush, the less weight each individual tomato will have.
If only five or six tomatoes are tied onto a brush, then they usually reach very large sizes, each weighing more than half a kilo.
The advantages and disadvantages of the variety
Virtues
But the main highlight of the tomatoes "Golden domes" is their taste. The flesh of these tomatoes is almost seedless, fleshy, with a small percentage of tomato juice.
The taste of these tomatoes is amazing, they have almost no acid, which for many people causes heartburn. We can say that this is the ideal variety of tomatoes for people with high acidity and are on a dietary basis.
disadvantages 
The peel of these tomatoes is strong, elastic, but not too thick. In the description of the variety, it is often forgotten to mention that with irregular, but abundant irrigation on the tomato “Golden domes”, cracking may appear on the skin. This is due to the fact that when a large amount of water reaches the roots of the plant, the fruit quickly begins to gain additional weight. The skin of the tomato does not keep up with the rapid growth of cells, so the tomato can burst.
Important! Tomato cracking can be avoided if the plants regularly (twice a week) receive moisture in small portions at the root (2-3 liters per plant).
Agrotechnology
“Golden domes”, like all high-yield varieties of tomatoes in the “Siberiada” series, is unpretentious in care, but it loves nutritious and fertilized soil. Also, plants need timely watering, loosening the soil, garter and protection from diseases and pests. 
Seed preparation, planting seeds and care for them
Tomato seeds "Golden domes" are sown on seedlings, in late February or early March. The time of sowing depends on the region in which the gardener lives, wishing to grow these tomatoes. For the cultivation of seedlings, the soil is prepared in the fall or bought in specialized summer-garden stores.
Soil for sowing
If the gardener decides to prepare the soil for the seedlings on his own, then for this he needs to mix two parts of ordinary garden or meadow land with one part of two-year-old humus and one part of sand. All components of the soil mixture are thoroughly mixed and poured into the boxes for seedlings. Since the soil is prepared in the fall, the boxes with primer covered in them should be kept until the spring freezes. 
This may be an unheated balcony or a cold barn. Freezing the soil will help destroy the small insects in it that may threaten the normal cultivation of seedlings.
Important! Gathering the land in the garden - you can not take the soil, which grew planting solanaceous (potatoes, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant and others). In this ground remained spores of fungal diseases that are susceptible to the family of the nightshade. If the soil is taken in a meadow, then the best soil is gathered from mole hills (molehills).
Sowing seeds
Before sowing seeds, you need to check with the lunar calendar and choose the most suitable day for sowing this crop. 
Preliminary seed preparation before sowing: Seeds are soaked in a pale pink manganese solution for 25 minutes, and then washed under running water. Then they are soaked overnight in any growth stimulator (Ivin, Epin) or aloe juice, honey and water solution (200 grams of warm water per one tablespoon of honey).
In the morning, the seeds are drained through a sieve of stimulating fluid, spread out evenly on newsprint and dried to flowability. Seeds are ready for sowing. 
Boxes of soil are entered into a warm room the day before planting. During this time, the soil thawed and warmed up.
How to sow tomato seeds:
- the ground in the boxes must be leveled;
- mark up and perform marking of grooves for sowing on the ground (the distance between the furrows is 5 cm, the depth of the furrow is 1 cm);
- lightly pour the furrows and spread the seeds into them at a distance of 1 cm from each other;
- sprinkle the seeds with soil and once again moderately water (in no case pour over!);
- put glass on top of the box or wrap the box in polyethylene (this will not allow the soil to dry out);
- put the box in a warm place (at the battery or heating boiler).
After 5-7 days, the first tender loops of tomato seedlings will appear on the soil surface. The box must be immediately relocated to a well-lit place (window-sill or a special illuminated seedling table).
Seedling care
Care for young seedlings is to moisten the spacing as the soil dries. Weekly, it is advisable to loosen the land between the rows in order to provide oxygen access to the roots of young seedlings. To loosen the ground in the razadnyh boxes conveniently with the help of a usual table fork.
Pickling seedlings 
In two weeks, the first two true leaves will appear on young tomatoes - this is a signal to the planting of the plants.
You can dive seedlings:
- in a larger box;
- in the greenhouse, located on the street.
- the distance between rows of tomatoes should not be less than 7-8 cm;
- distance in the row between plants no more than 2-3 cm.
- distance in the row: 15-25 cm;
- distance from tomato to tomato - 5-10 cm.
Did you know? American settlers have long considered tomatoes a deadly poisonous plant and never ate them. At the beginning of the 19th century, this fallacy was publicly dispelled by Colonel R. G. Johnson. A bold colonel in front of a large audience, sitting on the steps in front of the court building in the city of Salem, ate almost 10 kilograms "poisonous" Tomatoes. The brave military man survived, and tomatoes became extremely popular in the Americas.
Seedling and planting in the ground
After 40-45 days after the appearance of the first sprouts and the earth, the adult seedlings are ready for planting at a permanent place. The soil in which young plants will be planted should be pre-fertilized. 
What fertilizer is suitable for tomato beds:
- humus;
- bog peat;
- compost;
- last year's cattle dung.
Arrangement of large-fruited tomatoes with a high bush on street beds:
- plants are arranged in two rows;
- distance between adults and tomatoes - 50 cm;
- the distance between the first and second row is 40 cm;
- tomatoes of the first row are staggered with respect to tomatoes of the second row;
- after each two-row bed an intermediate track is made (80-100 cm).
The layout of large-fruited tomatoes with a high stem in the greenhouse:- distance between plants - 25-30 cm;
- The second row of tomatoes is located relative to the first row in a checkerboard pattern;
- tracks in the greenhouse are stationary and do not depend on the cultivated crop;
- the garter of plants in the greenhouse is carried out only on vertical rope supports.
Did you know? In nature, there are a huge number of tomato varieties (just over 10 thousand). They differ from each other in size, color of the fruit and its configuration. The smallest tomatoes are no larger than cherries, and the largest can grow to almost two kilograms. Tomatoes are: red, pink, yellow, orange, green, white, brown, black and striped.
Care and watering
Tomato variety "Golden domes" is very responsive to watering. Especially important is watering plants that are in the flowering stage and fruit set. Not receiving the proper amount of moisture, the pollen on the flowers remains sterile and peels off without forming the ovary, and already established fruits cannot gain a large mass.
It is recommended to water the tomatoes only under the root (not on the leaf). This method of irrigation is preferable, since the culture is very unstable to fungal diseases. 
Tomatoes in open ground watering 2 times a week, in the evening, at the rate of 2-3 liters of water for each plant. In the greenhouse, tomatoes are watered every other day at the rate of: 1-1.5 liters of water per plant.
You can water the plants in several ways:
- to equip the beds or in the greenhouse drip irrigation;
- make grooves (aryk) along a number of plants. They are located in the root zone of the bush;
- a plastic bottle is dug in between two plants without a bottom. Water is poured into this bottle and the liquid gradually penetrates to the roots of the plants.
- rope support;
- stationary or portable lanes (wooden or metal);
- wooden pegs.
Tomato is a perennial plant that is capable of perennial fruiting in the tropics, and only our cold winters prevent it. In our country, tomatoes are grown as a crop with a short life cycle (one summer). A method such as forming tomatoes serves to get as much fruit as possible from each plant during a warm period. 
The formation of tomatoes implies their pasynkovanie. Gotting is the removal of the resulting additional stems that appear in the sinuses between the main stem and the leaf of the tomato. Such stems are called stepsons and are subject to removal (up to 50 stepsons per plant per season). If the stepchildren are not removed, the plant suffers from an excess of branches, the fruits become shallow.
Formation of adult tomatoes "Golden domes" is carried out 3-4 fruit stalk, and the same variety, but grown in the greenhouse, is formed into one fruit stalk. Hothouse shaping is adapted for thick planting and plant garter to vertical rope supports. 
For street tomatoes in the northern regions of the country, the formation of two fruit stalks is recommended, for the southern regions, the formation of 3-4 stalks is recommended.
Pests and diseases
Tomatoes are subject to such diseases as:
- late blight;
- strick;
- verticillary wilting;
- cracking fruit;
- top rot;
- cladosporia (brown spot);
- fomoz (brown rot of fruits);
- fusarium wilt;
- alternaria (dry spotting);
- bacterial blotch;
- black leg (a disease of tomato seedlings).
- whitefly and slugs;
- spider mite and Colorado potato beetle;
- bear and wire;
- gnawing scoops.
They include:- weeding between rows in beds and plant garters;
- Avoid excessive thickening when planting tomatoes;
- mulching the root layer and thinning the leaf cover;
- watering at the root;
- nipping the top of the plant (growth point) in the first decade of August.
Conditions for maximum fructification
Golden dome domes can be helped to unleash the potential of a variety with the help of special preparations. For this, the plants are treated during the flowering period and during the pouring of the fruits with various stimulating substances.
Processing boric or succinic acid allows you to increase the number of ovaries in each brush. Growth stimulants (Epin, Heteroauxin, Biostim, Zircon, Korneysh) will help the plant to quickly gain leaf and root mass, which will have a positive effect on the quantity and quality of the fruits obtained in the future.
Did you know? "Matl" - this was the name of a tomato in the Aztec language. Only for the French, the Aztec word sounded incomprehensible and difficult, gradually it was transformed into the word "tomato". The inhabitants of Italy called the tomato "golden apple", and the population of Germany - "paradise apple".
Fruit use
These tomatoes are great for cutting fresh, summer salads and for processing into juices. The juice from the “Golden domes” is thick, yellow-orange, fragrant, with a pronounced tomato flavor. 
Tomato pulp is minced in a meat grinder or in a blender, and based on it, ketchup and adjika have an unusual yellow color. Winter blanks will delight the owners not only with taste, but also with sunny unusual appearance.
In the cultivation of tomatoes, the totality of all agronomic techniques is important, but even the most careful and conscientious care will not give good results if the tasteless or lean crop was originally chosen for planting. Tomatoes "Golden domes" were loved by summer residents and gardeners due to their remarkable taste, annual yield and unpretentiousness to the growing conditions.
